(Q3)
I have nothing much to say about the topic I have chosen to discuss upon but while taking self-assessment tests on listening and communication skills, one question which came up in my mind was Have Smartphones Changed Communication? Have we started talking more to strangers? We often don’t prefer face to face communication with stranger but how we start the conversation with people we don’t know on WhatsApp or Facebook Messangers?

All my scores are positive except for being open and relaxed while communicating and this is what I expected to come out. The only surprising thing was my high score in contentious category which I didn’t know how I fall into. I shall stop myself from getting into a heated conversation about anything. Rest all is much acceptable as I was sure of that and the scores proved it right. I shall improve my skills and try to be relaxed while communicating so that I can handle the situations easily. I shall think of opening my mind in front of others and sharing my feelings and emotions as it can facilitate them to do the same without any hesitation. Using gestures sometimes can prove to be hazardous so I will be careful while using them so it doesn’t looks like animated. I can prove myself to be a good listener by expressing admiration for others and it also make them believe that I am attentively listening to what they are saying.

(5)
I scored 46 in the test and the thing which surprised me the most is that I can connect myself with most of the questions or rather say all of them as they are the things I generally don’t take care of while listening to someone. I thought of myself to be a good listener but after evaluating I got to know that I am just average in my listening skills. So in order to improve my listening skills, I would change my habit of responding immediately as the conversation is finished and will first analyze the whole situation and then respond. I would try my level best to understand the other’s viewpoint before making my own interpretation. Many a times I know what I am going to listen but I will surely stop expecting what to listen and would rather listen to what is said. Then I believe I can prove to be a good listener.
